High Ultra Lounge is the destination to savor your taste buds with authentic Wok tossed Noodles from Asian countries. Favourites like Phad Thai, Udoon, Bamee will all be a part of the offering.Some of the options on menu will be Hakka Noodles from China, Stir Fried Curries Rice Noodles with Shrimp, Pork & Vegetable Noodles from Singapore, Phad Thai, Udoon, Burmese and a lot more. High Ultra Lounge, South India’s tallest lounge bar brings a delight for the Noodle lovers of Bengaluru with their Noodles of Asia Food Festival. The Executive Chef Myo Zaw Aung and Chef Rabi have orchestrated a menu that includes a range of delicious Noodles from across Asia. Chef Myo known for his expertise in fusion food has chosen Noodles from regions and countries across Asia to relish your taste buds. The authentic taste and traditional way of cooking will take you on a gastronomical journey across countries, as you taste the Noodle dishes from the menu.

A few of us were invited for a cooking master class with the Chef’s of High followed by a tasting of the noodles at their first ever Noodles Festival.

The session started with ‘ Know Your Noodles’ by Chef Rabi where he managed to explain the variety of Noodles available throughout the world and the way to cook them perfectly without turning them into a mushy texture. Most of the establishments use Soda which makes noodles chew but in general one should avoid using it. The Noodles need not be prepared in a complicated manner to turn it tastier, the simple noodle dish which is easy to make and use minimal ingredients generally tastes delicious. The idea is to stick with the original flavors and pairing. In India people tend to stick to the mostly popular Maggi Noodle.But this festival is giving a chance to taste the wide varieties of authentic Noodles all under one roof.

During the cooking demonstration all the noodles were pre boiled ( Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add noodles and cook just until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water. Drizzle a little oil , mix to keep the noodles from sticking and lay them on kitchen top to dry in natural air before the actual cooking)
